The transaction is marked as erroneous.

How to fix this error?

Check the loan conditions and see if you can possibly generate
a cash flow with the ONLINE transaction.
Possible causes of this error are:
- No principal repayment conditions have been set
- End of term has not been defined
- End of term cannot be determined
- Term or interest rate is missing
- A negative principal repayment appeared
Pay special attention to the following points:
The beginning of the fixed interest period must be defined.
(-> conditions header)
The interest calculation method must be available.
(-> conditions header)
The end of the fixed interest period should be defined. If this is not
the case, then at least the end of the term must be known.
(-> conditions header)
Flow types must be set up correctly for disbursements in Customizing.
In Customizing, a flow type must be set up correctly for residual
amounts (residual = disbursement - principal repayment).
IS-B cash flows must contain at least two flows. (Ensure that the
desired flow type is marked as relevant for the calculation in
Customizing.)
No flows in the cash flow may exist before the commitment date (or the
beginning of the fixed interest period).
For variable loans, a yield curve for calculating forward rates must be
entered in Customizing (in advance) for the given reference interest
rates. The Customizing settings of the yield curve must allow the
calculation of forward rates. The values corresponding to the yield
curve must be maintained for the date relevant to the forward rates.
For variable loans, interest rate adjustment 'relative to each
reference interest rate' is not supported because future adjustment
dates are not known. Therefore no appropriate forward rates can be
calculated.
When making a settlement calculation, the simulated disbursement cannot
fall outside the fixed interest period.
